Australia is a big country, and the best road trips cover serious distances. That's why unlimited mileage is essential when hiring a campervan here. With Cheap Campervan Hire, every vehicle comes with unlimited kilometres included — so you can drive the length of the Stuart Highway, loop Tasmania, or circumnavigate the entire continent without worrying about excess charges.
Some rental companies in other countries cap daily mileage at 100-200 km, with hefty per-kilometre fees for anything over. In Australia, where the nearest town can be 300 km away, that model simply doesn't work. All our partner companies include unlimited mileage as standard — it's the Australian way.
This means you can plan your road trip based on what you want to see, not how many kilometres you can afford. From short weekend getaways to month-long cross-country adventures, the price you're quoted is the price you pay.
Drive 500 km or 15,000 km — the daily rate stays the same with absolutely no mileage surcharges.
Choose your route based on what you want to see, not how many kilometres you can afford.
With vast distances between attractions, unlimited mileage is a necessity, not a luxury.
Know your exact transport costs before you leave — no surprise charges at the end of your trip.
Extended road trips across multiple states are fully covered without escalating costs.
Cross-country one-way hires with unlimited mileage make point-to-point travel simple and affordable.
To appreciate why unlimited mileage matters, consider the distances involved in popular Australian road trips:
In some overseas markets, rental companies offer lower daily rates with mileage caps — typically 100-200 km per day — and charge $0.25-$0.50 per excess kilometre. On a 3,000 km Australian road trip with a 100 km daily cap over 14 days, you'd face 1,600 excess kilometres at $0.35/km — an extra $560 on top of your hire cost.
With unlimited mileage, that extra cost simply doesn't exist. Every kilometre is included, making it easy to budget your trip accurately from the start.
